Twenty people from Lidkoping, Sweden, will tour Rockford Process Control, 2020 Seventh St., from 9 to 10 a.m. Tuesday as part of an Industrial Partnership Agreement.

The delegation, which includes 13 high school welding students, is meeting with local leaders and touring manufacturing facilities through April 20; their tour began April 10.

The IPA was signed during Mayor Larry Morrissey’s 2006 trade mission to Sweden. The trade missions initially were set up by the Rockford Area Economic Development Council.

Under the partnership agreement, the two cities “agreed to work together to create economic health, share learnings and mutually grow our businesses,” said Mark Podemski, RAEDC vice president for development.

The public is invited to the Lidkoping group’s news conference from 10 to 10:30 a.m.
